Hello!

I am currently running XP pro. I usually hit the standby button for when I walk away from my computer but recently it has begun to hang when I resume activity. All my fans (and probably more parts) run at full speed when I try to get out of standby, kinda like when you first turn on your computer, but it doesn't return to normal until I restart my computer.

Any idea what the problem could be?

I've searched far across the Google universe but it seems like everyone's answer is a little different than what I'm looking for.

thanks in advance.

Have you read through this?http://support.microsoft.com/kb/907477

In addition check your event viewer system and application logs. Warnings and Errors listed at the time you try to come out of standbye could narrow down the problem.
